I love how even tho they tried to embarrass him with most of these pictures, he handled it like a good-natured boss.. He showed them up

Does He know how much the world loves him?

I genuinely think she is intimidated by his authenticity.

Does Ellen know who she's sitting next to?? He was A list before there was an A list!

I'm so happy he's looking healthy again. He always made me feel sad when I saw how he'd ended up. But he's back and looking great!...

I wish Ellen would treat him the same as she treats A-list celebrities that come on the show :/ he seems like the nicest person

"Be kind to one another"... Practice what you preach Ellen

I'm 30. I watch home alone every year. Sometimes way before Christmas. I can't say how much I love it.

Macaulay is doing a comeback in the media! He looks great

Looks like he changed his life around, thats great!

Guess you have to be a Kardashian these days for Ellen to smile real big and be nice to you. 🙄

He took care of himself pretty well when Ellen was being rude to him. Good job son!

He seemed really relaxed & easy to interview :)

He went through a patch where I was convinced any day I'd wake up to hear he had died of an overdose. I've seen a few interviews with him the last couple months and he has definitely matured and looks much healthier.

He is so cool. I am glad he showed Ellen how gentlemen act and talk.

Hes the most famous kid who got famous sooo quick, the whole world knows him x yet still so humble

I'm normally a Ellen fan but not this time. She was passive aggressive rude /judgey to Macaulay Culkin and he was an absolute professional being very humble and pleasant! I am so glad to see him healthy and active again. Good for him! I wish people would quit judging him. Everyone handles stressful situations differently.

I’m actually crying right now, it’s so good to see him so healthy and happy!

I'm proud of him. He had a stint of being into the wrong scene and pulled himself out of it. I'm happy to see him doing well!

She'd be the first one to have a cry if she was treated like that. He is nothing but pleasant here

Glad the audience was engaged cause Ellen sure wasn’t. I love Ellen but he seemed so genuinely nice and engaged and she seemed like a bored child having to sit with the adults or something.

I enjoy his oddities, lol. I like who he developed into. He certainly isn't boring 😊

This interview was so awkward, but wow he looks the same! Home alone will always have a special place in my heart

My Girl is such a classic film, the whole movie makes me cry because of the authentic innocence throughout. I’ve never seen anything like it.

Well if that’s not the greatest comeback of the century I don’t know what is!

Is it just me...i think MacCaulay would make a great comeback as the Joker in the next Batman Movie

It’s good to see him looking healthy and happy. He had a rough go for awhile there.

OMG. Ellen was rushing him here... Does she not know every kid they grew up In the 90’s knows & loves his films??

He is looking and sounding amazing!

Because of this kid ! I had an awesome childhood ! Especially when christmas came around ! I knew we were going to play Home Alone !! 😊

Macaulay, artistically speaking has more talent than Ellen.

I dont think he has any idea how much we love him!

He looks healthy, I’m glad he’s doing good

He’s such a great guy ! I really like him ! So glad he did this interview after all these years.

All the dislikes are for Ellen's rude behavior. I love him!

He is awkwardly charming here or maybe it's just me. He was wonderful in Home Alone and My Girl. The man has talent. I wish him the best with Brenda Song and his goals.

He looks so healthy ! I'm rly happy

He's actually surprisingly charming.

He seems like he’s doing better. Good for him!

I think Ellen should take a break. She’s beginning to appear inhumane...

He’s seems too normal and good of a person for Hollywood. Hollywood doesn’t deserve him and probably never did. He seems like a cool ass person.

Macaulay looks great!!!

He looks so much healthier and happier..glad to see him in a good place.

I want to like this video because of him but dislike the video because of her

So glad he is going back! That’s what you call Hollywood royalty! 👑

I think Ellen shouldn’t accept to do interviews to people if she’s not gonna be nice with them tbh, she will save everyone an uncomfortable moment. She did the same to the Olsen twins, we are talking about 3 child stars that didn’t got into a public eye in years and that are trusting her with their first or one of their first interviews and she gets so, weird and serious with them

His comeback is perhaps the ultimate feel good story every 90s kid deserved!

He looks so young and fresh! I'm happy for him

A recovering child actor, and she treated him like trash. I guess the pink shirt, polite demeanor, and emotionally expressive interview wasn't feminist enough for her.

Ellen is rude asf. I can't stand her. Macaulay Culkin is such a sweetheart. So glad he's happy and healthy 💕💕

He looks great! Love his sense of humor. So good to see him doing well 💗

I kept waiting for Ellen to pull the gun on him, I mean, the man is trying to communicate with her and she almost literally puts up a wall in his face. He's strange, yes, and there might be something off about him but regardless of the fact that it's part of his charm, he's acting like that because he's been through HELL, from 14 to 32, including heroine addiction and his father publicly stating that he wasn't his son anymore and that he was already dead to him. Adding that to the fact that he basically raised his brothers and sisters while trying to grow up himself-the kid is doing fine. And he not only deserves Ellen's respect but I think she should put her judgment and sarcasm aside for a second and look him in the eyes when he talks. Maybe there's something behind the words and mannerism that she could have had the chance to bring into the light and she dismissed. And one day someone would sit down and interview him and he would recognize all these things and would push the right buttons and release the things that she missed. Too bad, Ellen. Really too bad.

i love the way he talks.

I just watched home alone 1. There's no winter without this movie. 1 and 2. Those are classical and I just love them ! I laugh everytime I watch them ,🙈😁

Just happened upon this Ellen today which is 9/11. Macaulay Culkin filmed HA2 on top of the Twin Towers. Love your work man. Glad you're back on the straight

If this isn’t the best comeback ever then I don’t know what is !!! :)

Im glad hes starting to get clean, hope he continues to do well. Maybe start acting again.

This guy is a legend 🙌🏿 Home Alone would also be a childhood great

This just shows how human and down to earth this amazing man is, I have alot of respect for him and less respect for the show for trying to embarrass and humiliate him, glad it backfired!

He's put a fair bit of weight on compared to a few years ago...and in a good way.

Don't really know why but I get so happy when I see him look "healthier". I have a soft spot for Mac.

0:07 that's the darkest thing Ellen ever said

I wasn’t even born yet when he do “home alone” and I love him ! I showed my son the movies and we both were laughing. He’s great ! 💗 more movies of him please !

2:17 "Now you have your hobbies because of her." No. Mac was famous before he met Anna Chlumsky. He had already made Home Alone. His success and money had nothing to do with her.

"Ellen, eat a Snickers. You are not being yourself. Better?" Seriously though, she seemed so uninterested, unenergetic and rude. Maybe it was an off day for her? It was acting like she was on autopilot and not really listening. Just saying "uh...yeah... uh-huh...cool"

Gosh……I still totally love him! Amazing person.

He seems like a sweetheart. So happy to see this

Glad he’s a lot better in life then he was a few years back.

he's so precious. keep him safe

I still have a crush on this man

I’m almost 40 and I watch Home Alone every Christmas Eve! Macaulay is a big part of my childhood.

Mac is a legend!!! He's unforgettable

I’m glad he’s doing good, he sure made my childhood Christmas always entertaining.

He's so funny, I love him! Feels like he's pretty misunderstood by a lot of the media, his jokes seem to fall flat on these talk shows, it's too subversive for these audiences. So gracious anyway though, what a cool and sweet man.

"Oh My God This is so 90s" - Maucalay Culkin

I feel like you can see it on her face when she’s judge-y 🙄She treats A-list celebrities like they’re gold, but not really everyone else.

ellen was rushing so fasting and he was still trying to talk.....

Macaulay Culkin is a talent he does not understand how much He is misses in movies. He could make movies now I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE WOULD LOVE HIM TO MAKE MOVIES AS AN ADULT.

His and Anna kissing scene is the cutest thing ever!

The reason why this video makes me happy is because it feels like a little sparkle of childhood came back✨

I'm happy he's doing well tbh

He looks sooooo good! Happy for him!! 💙

He deserves a bit more respect as a simple being. Ellen, you were not classy here. Sad. Your level requires you being a role model... and you weren.t.

Ellen looks like she is phoning in this whole interview. Sad. Culkin is such a great guest!

I LOVE his quirkiness and he's really handsome ! I'm so happy he's healthy and happy and ever so lovely as can be

2:31 “heck yeah I do” 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 that was cute

He's too cool for everyone Love this dude Truly the best

Man,I’m just so glad to see him happy and healthy...A very talented dude. He will always be the Christmas hero for me.

"and now you have your hobbies because of her..:" EXCUSE ME?

You do what you want, man. whatever makes you happy because your works gave me so much happiness

He is a delightful interview. Glad he is happy.

Time flies. I feel so old.

He's so cool and nice and humble but Ellen's being kinda nasty with him

He looks so much healthier now! Great to see him looking good like this.

The whole world loves you. Please remember that ❤

he actually looks really great for 37 !!

Macaulay has always been one of my heroes. There was a time I knew the whole script of My Girl by heart because I watched it at least twice a day. This is the first time I see an interview with him and my admiration of his personality multiplied by 100. A couple years ago I had the great opportunity to visit the USA and we were passing through Florida. I remember seeing a house on the corner that looked almost identical to Vada's house in My Girl, when I found out it actually is the house used in the film. That was the best moment ever! I would love to tune in to his podcast and say hi

Anyone else realize his nails are painted

He is so fine, he is one of my favorite actors.

That was super honest and really down to earth! I’m so happy for him though!👏👍 Really good to see him looking so happy and healthy ☮️
